Swimsuit season is officially upon us and there are so many amazing swimsuits to choose from these days that it can be mighty overwhelming. To be honest, I always knew Zappos had an amazing shoe selection, but had no idea they offered trendy clothing and swimsuits as well.

A few weeks ago I stumbled upon the best selection of swimsuits on Zappos and found one in particular that I HAD to have. This retro inspired one piece by Lucky Brand is right up my alley and fits like glove, you guys!

How adorable is this one-piece?! The back detail is so cute and the cut in general is super flattering for all body types. The fit is true to size, so to give you an example I ordered an extra small which fits like a 2-4.

Why shop this Lucky Brand swimsuit on Zappos? Two words: free shipping. Even if the suit costs the same on another retailers site, chances are there won’t be free shipping (there’s also a good chance the same swimsuit will be a little more expensive) which is pretty lame in my book. Swimsuits can be tricky, so the last thing I want to do is spend money on shipping when there’s a 50% chance I’m going to have to return it.

So, next time you’re in the market for the perfect swimsuit and don’t want to bother hunting down promo codes for free shipping, check out the huge selection Zappos has to offer! There’s no doubt in my mind that you’ll find whatever you’re looking for for everyone in the family.

What would you say this outfit costs?

Go ahead, take a wild guess. If I saw this off the shoulder dress and these cute little block heeled sandals on a stranger at the store, I would easily say the outfit was around $100 total — if not more. But this momma is looking for cute AND affordable, amirite?!

This ruffle off the shoulder dress was under $13, you guys. My black block heeled sandals were under $17! Insane. You’re probably thinking, “what’s that catch?” There’s no catch. Each piece from Burkes Outlet is brand new and the quality is amazing. I’ve ordered several outfits from Burkes now and haven’t been disappointed once! Everything seems to be very true to size and you just can’t beat their prices. Most of the tops I looked at were under $10 and you will find that most clothing items are under $20!

Yeah, you’ll find some KILLER deals on clothes (for all ages) at Burkes Outlet, but they offer much more than that. You will find amazing deals on all the hottest toys, kitchen appliances, home decor, accessories…I could go on.

I also found these tan, perforated heels for under $18 which is amazing because they will go with everything this spring and summer! Keep in mind that because Burkes prices are so competitive, styles do tend to sell out pretty quickly. The good news? They add trendy new styles to their website on the reg, so you’re always bound to find something you’ll love at Burkes for a fraction of the price.

What do you see when you look in the mirror?

I don’t care what anyone says, there’s not one person in this world who hasn’t been insecure about something at one point in their lives. Growing up, I was often teased for being “too thin” and kids would even ask me if I had an eating disorder. Ahh, middle school — ya gotta love it! Meanwhile, I ate like a full grown man (some things never change) and at times people’s comments made me feel like I needed to be curvier.

Did I eventually get over that whole “skinny girl” complex? Yes. I started to appreciate my fast metabolism and focus on what I did love about my body. Does that mean I never feel insecure about anything anymore? Nah. I’m far from perfect and just like most women — I will let the occasional self deprecating thought run a muck in my mind. Let’s just put it this way — we are all a work in progress and the grass will always look greener if you let it.

CHOOSE to love the skin you’re in.

Now that I’m in my thirties and a mother of two, I want to feel sexy, confident, all while feeling comfortable. I love this seamless bralette — it provides the support I’m looking for and is seriously the most comfortable bra I own now. It comes in five different color options and is under $50. It’s the perfect bra whether you’re layering, lounging, or working out. I linked all of my favorite new arrivals from Soma, a company who takes pride in empowering women regardless of their shape or size.

Trending: One-pieces and all things leopard.

Oh hey, friends! Since Spring is practically here, I figured it would be fun to talk about my top swimsuit picks for this season. Whether you’re new around here or you’ve been following along for a while, you can probably already tell that my style is pretty retro.

I also realize that leopard is making a HUGE comeback, but believe it or not I’m pretty new to the game. I used to not care for much animal print, but my love for it has really grown here lately! This two piece mix and match set that I’m wearing is linked along with the rest of my faves (see bottom of this post for direct links).

“Trust me when I say that not all one-pieces are created equal.”

I love a one-piece as much as the next gal, but I am very choosy when it comes to the way they fit. If the quality isn’t great, there’s a high probability that it can go very wrong. It’s the worst when a one-piece fits funny in the back and you end up with the dreaded “frump butt.” ‘Cause let’s be honest, nobody has time for that ish.

I shared this one shoulder one-piece with you guys recently and you all seemed to love it as much as I do! Isn’t it cute? It comes in ten different colors, true to size, and under $100. If you use code JENNIFER10 on any suit from Summersalt you will receive a $10 gift towards any purchase over $95. You cannot beat the quality and this is truly one of the best fitting swimsuits I’ve ever tried on. Very flattering!

P.S. This post is in no way sponsored and all opinions are my own.

Although quality is very important, I am also allll about affordable! That being said, I linked a bunch of my favorite swimsuits for you ladies and most of them are either on major sale or under $100. You will even find some pieces that are buy one get one freee! You’ll find a good mix of one-pieces and high waist mix and match sets that I have a feeling you will love!

As a 32 year old (boy) mom, I want to make sure that my swimsuit picks are not only stylish, but tasteful.

I am also all about the high waisted bottoms! I feel like they are so much more flattering because they accentuate your waist while sucking in your lower stomach (something you usually don’t want to flaunt after kids – at least I don’t). You will find that most of the swimsuits I linked are either cute one-pieces or a mix n’ match set with a higher waisted bottom.

I wanted to keep this post short and sweet, but I hope you found my picks helpful! I don’t know about you, but I am oh so ready for warmer temps, beach trips and long pool days with the fam.
